To request a Mass intention, please note the following fees:

• For one Mass:                                                                   $20

• For a novena of Masses (9 consecutive Masses):                   $200

• For a series of Gregorian Masses (30 consecutive Masses):      $800

Clarifications:

1. A stipend in no way corresponds with the value of the Mass, which is of infinite value. Expressions such as: “How much does a Mass cost?” or “How much is it for a Mass?” are inaccurate. It is more correct to say: “What is the stipend for a Mass?”

2. Given the small number of priests in the USA District and the great number of Masses requested, we cannot give specific dates when the requested Masses will be celebrated.

3. Unlike other donations which are given directly to the Society or its chapels, Mass stipends are given directly to the priest who celebrates the Mass and therefore these are not classified as tax-deductible contributions; consequently, it is not possible for us to give an income tax receipt.

4. We ask those who wish to have Masses said to please indicate clearly on a piece of paper their name, the intention of the Mass to be said (including, if applicable, the name of any person(s) for whom the intention is associated) and to put this information and the stipend in an envelope for the priest (celebrant). Also, please indicate whether the person for whom a Mass is intended is deceased or living.

5. NB: Those unable to pay this new stipend rate should speak with their local pastor in order to request a Mass for a lower stipend.
